Strength of schedule only matters if you can consistently beat the teams below you. That doesn't seem to be the case this season though, the Flames seem to play down to their opponents' level regardless of who they play and every game ends up becoming a one goal nail bitter.
Especially curious to see how they play the Sharks this season. I think they beat us fair and square 3 times last season, so I wonder how the series ends up going this year.
